SUMMARY:from Hungary: DAMNATION
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Damnation right here\, right now \nA loner tries to win back his estranged lover\, a lounge singer in a bar named Titanik\, in Hungarian filmmaker Bela Tarr’s otherworldly film noir. Some of you may have seen Tarr’s classic\, 7-hour film Satantango when it was screened at the IU Cinema in 2019. Relax\, Damnation is a mere 1 hour\, 56 minutes. Originally filmed in 1988\, Damnation has recently been released in the States in a new 4K restoration by the Hungarian National Film Institute \nMade in 1988 but virtually unknown in the United States\, Damnation is the movie with which the great Hungarian filmmaker Bela Tarr fully became Bela Tarr. \nAside from a mayfly run some 30 years ago at Anthology Film Archives in Manhattan\, Damnation has been all but invisible. It’s a brilliant calling card. Its melancholy\, hurdy-gurdy score\, exaggerated sound design\, ritual ensemble dances\, inexorable camera moves suggest a dry run for Tarr’s 1994 masterpiece\, the immersive\, 7-hour Satantango — at less than one-third the length. – J. Hoberman\, The New York Times \n

SUMMARY:VINYL NATION
DESCRIPTION:WHY THE RYDER NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT TODAY \nBack in March\, when we made the decision to publish the magazine without ad revenue\, we thought the pandemic would be under control by September. Clearly\, we were wrong about that. Today\, with the end nowhere in sight\, we are asking for your support to publish The Ryder into the spring. Read more \n\nYou can watch Vinyl Nation right here\, right now \nThe vinyl record renaissance over the past decade has brought new fans to a classic format and transformed our idea of a record collector: younger\, both male and female\, multicultural. This same revival has made buying music more expensive\, benefited established bands over independent artists and muddled the question of whether vinyl actually sounds better than other formats. Vinyl Nation digs into the crates of the record resurgence in search of truths set in deep wax: Has the return of vinyl made music fandom more inclusive or divided? What does vinyl say about our past here in the present? How has the second life of vinyl changed how we hear music and how we listen to each other? Directed by Christopher Boone and Kevin Smokler.  92 minutes \n \nVinyl Nation – Trailer FINAL from California Film Institute on Vimeo. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film?

SUMMARY:O Brother\, Where Art Thou? August 8th in Bryan Park
DESCRIPTION:A trio of escaped prisoners embarks on the adventure of a lifetime as they set out to pursue their freedom and discover buried treasure in the rural South in the 1930s. Endlessly surprising and as giddily and defiantly unclassifiable as all other Coen Brothers films\, O Brother\, Where Art Thou?  is\, among many other things\, a celebration of American music. With a score curated and produced by T-Bone Burnett\, the movie sings with voices and sounds of some of the best musicians in the country\, including Ralph Stanley\, the Fairfield Four\, Alison Krauss\, John Hartford\, Emmylou Harris\, and Gillian Welch\, and the melodies of classics like “Big Rock Candy Mountain\,” “I’ll Fly Away\,” and the film’s touchstone\, “Man of Constant Sorrow.” George Clooney\, Tim Blake Nelson and John Turturro star.  \nFree Screening Under the Stars in Bryan Park on August 8th. Bring a blanket. Bring a snack. Bring the dog. Bring hand sanitizer. Masks are required and seating is limited. Tickets of course are free.

SUMMARY:The 11th Green
DESCRIPTION:  \nYou can watch The 11th Green right here\, right now\n\nAn investigative reporter\, a post World War II government conspiracy\, and extraterrestrials — what more could you ask for? Throw in a bit of transcendental philosophy and we’re doing somersaults.\n \nThe 11th Green is a pensive science fiction drama; a disclaimer as the film opens acknowledges that it is “unavoidably speculative” but adds that it is “a likely factual scenario of extraordinary events.” \nCampbell Scott (House of Cards) stars as the investigative journalist who uncovers evidence of a long-ago conspiracy while sifting through his recently deceased father’s papers. The film includes fictional and real-life characters including Dwight D. Eisenhower\,  Cabinet member and former C.I.A. director Walter Bedell Smith; first-term Congressman from Massachusetts John F. Kennedy; and James V. Forrestal\, the first Secretary of Defense\, who fell to his death in 1949 from a sixteenth-floor hospital window. There’s also an unnamed President from the “recent past\,” clearly meant to evoke Barack Obama. \nIn its own way\, the film posits a possible backstory to recent revelations in the New York Times and the Washington Post and subsequent declassification of certain U.S. military interactions with UFOs \nThe 11th Green is written and directed by Christopher Munch\, a wonderful filmmaker who unfortunately\, in a thirty year career has released only six feature films. We screened his debut film\, The Hours and the Times\, in which Ian Hart stars as John Lennon (Hart also appears in a pivotal role The 11th Green as James Forrestal) as his most-recent film Letters From the Big Man (about the search for Bigfoot).  \n  \nCRITIC’S PICK! – The New York Times \nWildly inventive . . . a work of meticulous historical imagination. . . . With tight-lipped restraint\, Munch giddily tweaks the past seventy-five years of political assumptions and the very concept of life on Earth.” -Richard Brody\, The New Yorker \nWe often hear there are no new movie ideas\, but I beg to differ\, seeing as how I’ve just screened The 11th Green\, a mind-bending deadpan indie gem from writer-director Christopher Munch. Suggestion: If you’re the type of individual inclined to ingest a marijuana edible now and then\, a perfect time to do so would be about 45 minutes before watching. – Richard Roeper\, Chicago Sun-Times \n  \n  \n \nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY?\nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film? Maybe you’d like to write something for our magazine. Send an email to editor@theryder.com. We can be talked into almost anything.

SUMMARY:HELMUT NEWTON - THE BAD AND THE BEAUTIFUL
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Helmut Newton right here\, right now \nOne of the great masters of photography\, Helmut Newton made a name for himself exploring the female form\, and his cult status continues long after his tragic death in a Los Angeles car crash in 2004. Newton worked around the globe\, from Singapore to Australia to Paris to Los Angeles\, but Weimar Germany was the visual hallmark of his work. Newton’s unique and striking way of depicting women has always posed the question: did he empower his subjects or treat them as sexual objects? \nFeaturing interviews with Grace Jones\, Isabella Rossellini\, Anna Wintour\, Charlotte Rampling\, Marianne Faithfull\,\nClaudia Schiffer\, and Hanna Schygulla. \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film?

DESCRIPTION:WHY THE RYDER NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT TODAY \nBack in March\, when we made the decision to publish the magazine without ad revenue\, we thought the pandemic would be under control by September. Clearly\, we were wrong about that. Today\, with the end nowhere in sight\, we are asking for your support to publish The Ryder into the spring. Read more \n\n  \nYou can watch Bungalow right here\, right now \nA major work of the celebrated Berlin School\, the debut of Ulrich Köhler is a mesmerizing portrait of a young German soldier named Paul who goes AWOL and returns to his childhood home in the countryside. Over a few summer days\, Paul evades the responsibilities of everyday life and falls in love with his brother’s girlfriend\, disrupting the lives of everyone in his circle. With Köhler’s penchant for deadpan humor and subtle performances\, Bungalow becomes a quiet mockery of militarism\, familial estrangement\, and youthful ennui. New 4K Restoration. \nCritic’s Pick! Köhler’s first film\, newly available in the U.S.\, is a secretive and beautifully observant study of teenage disaffection. — The New York Times \n \nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film?

SUMMARY:from Japan: WE ARE LITTLE ZOMBIES
DESCRIPTION:WHY THE RYDER NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT TODAY \nBack in March\, when we made the decision to publish The Ryder magazine without ad revenue\, we thought the pandemic would be under control by September. Clearly\, we were wrong about that. Today\, with the end nowhere in sight\, we are asking for your support to publish The Ryder into the spring. Read more \n\nYou can watch We Are Little Zombies right here\, right now \nOne sunny day\, four young strangers meet by chance at a crematorium. They have all recently lost their parents\, but none of them can shed a tear. They are like zombies\, devoid of all emotion. Alone in the world at 13 years of age with no future\, no dreams\, and no way to move forward\, our protagonists dress themselves in scraps from a garbage dump\, track down musical instruments\, and decide to form a kick-ass band. They call themselves LITTLE ZOMBIES. This is a story about their quest to retrieve their ability to feel. \nDirected by Makoto Nagahisa\, We Are Little Zombies bursts with hyper pop style and unbridled imagination. Mixing inspiration from film\, television\, music\, and\, most importantly\, video games\, Nagahisa dazzles with a myriad of cinematic tricks\, and he pushes his script in zany directions while never losing sight of its sympathetic exploration of grief and loss. (Japan / subtitles / 120 min) \nCRITIC’S PICK! Wry humor\, absurd dialogue and unflagging energy propel this dazzling\, manic debut from Makoto Nagahisa…. he throws an entire box of tricks at the screen. Splitting it in two\, fading to black and white\, writing over it\, and dunking an entire scene into a fishbowl\, he fashions a fantasia of pranks so unexpected and colors so intense (the splendid cinematography is by Hiroaki Takeda)\, they could make you hallucinate. – The New York Times  \n \nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film? Maybe you’d like to write something for our magazine. Send an email to editor@theryder.com. We can be talked into almost anything.

SUMMARY:CREEM
DESCRIPTION:WHY THE RYDER NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT TODAY \nBack in March\, when we made the decision to publish the magazine without ad revenue\, we thought the pandemic would be under control by September. Clearly\, we were wrong about that. Today\, with the end nowhere in sight\, we are asking for your support to publish The Ryder into the spring. Read more \n\n  \nYou can watch Creem right here\, right now \nBoy Howdy! The Story of Creem Magazine chronicles what some consider to be the greatest rock ‘n’ roll magazine ever made (with an iconic mascot designed by cartoonist\, Robert Crumb). In this compelling film\, Alice Cooper\, Cameron Crowe\, Michael Stipe\, Chad Smith\, Joan Jett\, Gene Simmons\, Paul Stanley\, Kirk Hammett\, and Wayne Kramer express their love and appreciation for Creem. Started in Detroit in 1969 by Barry Kramer\, the magazine aimed to be the anti-Rolling Stone. Instead of covering artists in New York and Los Angeles\, Creem was devoted to the sounds of the Midwest\, particularly the booming scene in its hometown. They were the first to feature such bands as The MC5\, The Stooges\, and Parliament Funkadelic. But they weren’t just known for their work; the motley crew of a staff lived the rockstar lifestyle themselves\, with their headquarters being a destination for debauchery. As their popularity rose\, internal problems emerged between Kramer and notorious editor\, Lester Bangs\, causing chaos behind the scenes. Sadly\, both Barry Kramer and Lester Bangs both died of drug overdoses in the early 80s. Director Scott Crawford uncovers the ups and downs of one of music’s biggest influencers in this entertaining rockumentary. The film’s title comes from the magazine’s catchphrase. When the cartoonist Robert Crumb wandered into the fledgling magazine’s offices in need of cash\, he was offered $50 to draw the cover of issue No. 2. Crumb’s illustration included an anthropomorphized bottle of cream exclaiming “Boy Howdy!\,” which became the magazine’s mascot and catchphrase. \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film?

SUMMARY:I Am Not Your Negro\, Toni Morrison and Whose Streets?
DESCRIPTION:We are screening three films that explore and bring a fresh and radical perspective to the current racial narrative in America. Two of these were shown in our series when they were originally released – I Am Not Your Negro and Toni Morrison: The Pieces I Am. They are both well worth a second look. The third\, Whose Streets? \, is one that we overlooked when it was released in 2017. We are donating our portion of the ticket sales (just under 50%) to causes and organizations addressing longstanding injustices: police reform initiatives\, The Bail Project\, The Movement for Black Lives and Black Lives Matter.  \nWe will also be screening the upcoming documentary John Lewis: Good Trouble when it is released on July 4th. \nI Am Not Your Negro: Director Raoul Peck envisions the book James Baldwin never finished – a radical narration about race in America\, using the writer’s original words. He draws upon James Baldwin’s notes on the lives and assassinations of Medgar Evers\, Malcolm X\, and Martin Luther King Jr. (95 min) To call “I Am Not Your Negro” a movie about James Baldwin would be to understate Mr. Peck’s achievement. It’s more of a posthumous collaboration\, an uncanny and thrilling communion between the filmmaker and his subject. It’s a remedial course in American history\, and an advanced seminar in racial politics — a concise\, roughly 90-minute movie with the scope and impact of a 10-hour mini-series. Whatever you think about the past and future of what used to be called “race relations” — white supremacy and the resistance to it\, in plainer English — this movie will make you think again\, and may even change your mind. — A.O.Scott\, The New York Times\nWatch I Am Not Your Negro right here\, right now\n\nToni Morrison: The Pieces I Am: With the peerless style and rich perspective on Black America she brought to such acclaimed novels as Beloved\, The Bluest Eye\, and Song of Solomon\, Toni Morrison earned a reputation as one of America’s greatest living writers.\n\nShe wrote her books from a vital\, underrepresented point of view. Inspired to write because no one took a “little black girl” seriously\, Morrison was one of the few who wrote for an African American audience\, and she understood the way language could operate as an oppressive or uplifting force—she refused to let her words be marginalized. After years of fighting to be heard\, Morrison was awarded a Nobel Prize for her writing\, and her novels are now taught in schools around the world.\nThrough a trove of archival material\, evocative works of contemporary art\, and interviews with Oprah Winfrey\, Angela Davis\, and Morrison herself\, we revisit her famed books and learn about the inspiration for her writing. Throughout\, Morrison is effortlessly graceful\, insightful\, and candid\, making this intimate\, comprehensive portrait of her life and works an exploration of what it means to be a writer whose stories are so deeply intertwined with often-unrealized national truths.\nWatch Toni Morrison: The Pieces I Am right here\, right now\n\nWhose Streets?: Told by the activists and leaders who live and breathe this movement for justice\, Whose Streets? is an unflinching look at the Ferguson uprising. When unarmed teenager Michael Brown is killed by police and left lying in the street for hours\, it marks a breaking point for the residents of St. Louis\, Missouri. Grief\, long-standing racial tensions and renewed anger bring residents together to hold vigil and protest this latest tragedy. Empowered parents\, artists\, and teachers from around the country come together as freedom fighters. As the national guard descends on Ferguson with military grade weaponry\, these young community members become the torchbearers of a new resistance.\n\nWatch Whose Streets? right here\, right now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a suggestion for a film?

SUMMARY:Pioneers of Queer Cinema
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Pioneers of Queer Cinema right here\, right now \n  \nFor Pride month: Restorations of three three German classics from the 1920s and 30s that were landmarks in the early history of queer cinema and waayyy ahead of their time …  \n\n  \nVictor and Victoria: Produced in the final days of the Weimar Republic\, this dazzling\, gender-bending musical romance about a female singer posing as a man in drag received limited exposure in the United States\, and is today best known by Blake Edwards’s 1982 remake and the 1995 Broadway production. Viewers will be delighted to discover that the original is every bit as charming and outrageous\, reminiscent of the sly sex comedies of Ernst Lubitsch and Billy Wilder. \n\n  \n\nMadchen in Uniform: As a new student at an all-girls boarding school\, Manuela falls in love with the compassionate teacher Fräulein von Bernburg\, and her feelings are requited. Experiencing her first love\, lonely Manuela also discovers the complexities that come with an illicit romance. This artfully composed landmark of lesbian cinema – and an important anti-fascist film – was the first of just three films directed by Leontine Sagan. \n\n  \n\nMichael: Danish film master Carl Theodor Dreyer’s Michael is a mature and visually elegant period romance decades ahead of its time. Michael takes its place alongside Dreyer’s better known masterpieces as an unusually sensitive and decorous work of art and is one of the earliest and most compassionate overtly gay-themed films in movie history. \n  \n \nPioneers of Queer Cinema runs through July 1 \nAlso on our calendar this month: PROUD \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film?

SUMMARY:from Portugal: THE GREEN YEARS and CHANGE OF LIFE
DESCRIPTION:Long un-screened in the United States\, Paulo Rocha’s ​The Green Years​ and ​Change of Life​ are two key entries in the Portuguese New Wave. Both have been restored by the Portuguese Cinematheque. ​ \nBefore beginning his feature-filmmaking career\, Rocha worked as an assistant to both Jean Renoir and Manoel de Oliveira. \nWidely considered the founding text of the New Portuguese Cinema\, Rocha’s The Green Year’s reflected a new attitude in the wake of post-Salazar modernization of urban life in the 1960s. Nineteen-year-old Julio heads to Lisbon from the provinces and gets a job as a shoemaker for his uncle Raul. But when he meets Ilda\, a confident young housemaid who becomes a regular shop visitor\, his working-class values collide with the bourgeois trappings of modern life. Rocha subverts melodramatic conventions by avoiding easy psychology or clearly defined goals\, and favors mise-en-scène over narrative\, reflecting a country at odds with its national character. Never before released in the U.S.\, Rocha’s debut film\, gloriously shot in black-and-white\, is an extraordinary and haunting coming-of-age film. (1963 / 91 minutes) \nYou can watch The Green Years right here\, right now! \nRocha’s second feature\, ​Change of Life​\, is a masterpiece of “sculpted reality\,” using fictional conceits and non-actors cast as themselves to create an ethnographic portrait of Furadouro\, a remote Portuguese fishing village. The dramatic premise\, about a soldier returning home to a place that has changed in both subtle and obvious ways during his absence\, serves as a pretext for Rocha to respectfully examine the specificities of Furadouro’s people\, their daily routines and rituals\, and their evolving relationships with the village’s history. (1966 / 90 min) \nYou can watch Change of Life right here\, right now

SUMMARY:Joan of Arc
DESCRIPTION:Watch Joan of Arc right here\, right now \nIn the 15th century\, both France and England stake a blood claim for the French throne. Believing that God had chosen her\, the young Joan leads the army of the King of France. When she is captured\, the Church sends her for trial on charges of heresy. Refusing to accept the accusations\, the graceful Joan of Arc will stay true to her mission. \nFrench filmmaker Bruno Dumont has established an international reputation as a director of eccentric\, inventive arthouse cinema. Some of you saw his 2015 film\, L’il Quinquin.  Joan of Arc is a sequel of sorts to Dumon’t 2018 musical\, Jeanette: The Childhood of Joan of Arc (which we also showed) but is nevertheless a stand-alone film. Lise Leplat Prudhomme reprises her role as the young\, singing Joan. Dumont’s decision to work with a ten-year-old actress re-injects this heroine’s timeless cause and ideology with a modernity that highlights the fervor\, strength and freedom women show when shackled by patriarchal societies and archaic virile customs. \nFrance / 138 minutes / $12 \n  \nCRITICS PICK! Striking…contemporary without breaking the particular period spell the movie creates!” —Glenn Kenny\, New York Times \nThe EXTRAORDINARY Lise Leplat Prudhomme reprises her role\nas the child martyr and gives (the film) a soulful centerpiece.\n— IndieWire \nDumont transforms the tale into a dialectical spectacle…\n—Richard Brody\, The New Yorker \nA CINEMATIC MIRACLE!\n—SLATE \nMore than ever\, Bruno Dumont’s Cinema confirms\nits ORIGINALITY and wealth.”  \n—Cahiers du Cinéma

The 16mm footage and documents not only allow the filmmakers to tell the story of the overthrow of the Iranian government in unprecedented detail\, but also lead to explosive revelations about dark secrets buried for 67 years. What begins as a history documentary about 4 days in August 1953 turns into a live investigation\, taking the filmmakers into uncharted cinematic waters. (119 minutes) \n“As enlightening as “Coup 53” is as a secret history\, it’s even more satisfying as an aesthetic exercise\, treating viewers to one of cleverest workarounds in cinematic problem-solving in recent memory. It’s a nonfiction film that functions precisely as all documentaries should: as a piece of doggedly investigative\, personally transparent reporting\, and as simply great storytelling\, full stop.”\n– The Washington Post \n“Twists and reveals that would make John le Carré smile”\n– Financial Times \n“CRITICS PICK!

SUMMARY:from Portugal: FRANCISCA
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Francisca right here\, right now \nA rising young novelist falls in love with the daughter of an English army officer. Portuguese filmmaker Manoel de Oliveira made this amazing film in 1981\, at the age of 72; as powerful as it is stark\, it suggests a blending of the modernist\, minimalist techniques of Jean-Marie Straub with the elusive spiritual subject matter of Max Ophuls. With its elaborate title cards\, its abundance of shots in which the action is oriented directly toward the camera\, its evocative interiors\, and its show-stopping gala set-pieces\, Francisca is an exacting\, sumptuous and utterly inimitable cinematic experience\, and one of Oliveira’s crowning achievements. (Portugal / subtitled / 166 min) \nFrancisca premiered in 1981 as an official selection in Director’s Fortnight at Cannes. The new 4K digital restoration by the Cinemateca Portuguesa premiered at the 76th Venice Film Festival in 2019. \nco-feature: If you are a fan of movies about aspiring writers\, you might also want to watch Martin Eden \n\n  \n \n  \nA masterpiece of modern cinema!  A story of great subtlety\, density\, and emotional impact. – Dave Kehr\, When Movies Mattered\n \n\nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film?

SUMMARY:OLIVER SACKS: His Own Life
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Oliver Sacks: His Own Life\, right here\, right now\n \nOliver Sacks: His Own Life explores the life and work of the legendary neurologist and storyteller\, as he shares intimate details of his battles with drug addiction\, homophobia\, and a medical establishment that accepted his work only decades after the fact. Sacks was a fearless explorer of unknown mental worlds who helped redefine our understanding of the brain and mind\, the diversity of human experience\, and our shared humanity. Directed by Ric Burns. (111 min) \nCritics Pick! A deftly edited mix of archival footage\, still imagery\, talking-head interviews and in-the-moment narrative\, “His Own Life” — which in a perfect world would be a companion piece to Sacks’s book\, not the substitute some might make it — illuminates details of what can only be called an extraordinary existence. It beautifully presents a portrait of his compassion and bravery. –The New York Times \n\nWHY THE RYDER NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT (Yes\, we know\, everyone is asking for your support.)  \nThrough the years\, The Ryder has been generously supported by local shops and restaurants\, many of them purchasing ad space simply because they wanted to support a community magazine.

Rather than suspend publication\, we made the decision to publish the magazine without ad revenue. Ads would be run for free. We thought the pandemic would be under control by September and we could then make up for some of the lost funds. Clearly\, we were wrong about that.

SUMMARY:Guest of Honour
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Guest of Honour right here\, right now\n \n\n\nCanadian filmmaker Atom Egoyan (Family Viewing\, The Sweet Hereafter) returns with the astonishing Guest of Honour\, a characteristically psychologically nuanced drama that also delivers a succession of twists that strike like a flurry of gut punches. \nA Toronto health inspector\, spends his days frequenting family-owned restaurants and wielding the power to shutter their dreams at the slightest provocation. But serving as a guardian angel for unsuspecting diners can’t begin to ease the conscience of this deeply conflicted man. His adult daughter\, Veronica (Laysla De Oliveira)\, is incarcerated for a crime she clearly didn’t commit. And\, yet\, she insists that she deserves to remain imprisoned for other transgressions for which she cannot forgive herself. \nDavid Thewlis gives an extraordinary performance as the conflicted health inspector with a fondness for rabbits. We become so enraptured delving into the dark histories of these beautifully rendered characters\, with their emotional wounds and ill-advised coping mechanisms\, that you’ll be forgiven if you don’t immediately notice that Egoyan has nimbly interwoven multiple timelines into an enthralling narrative whole that’s punctuated by one of the finest scenes of both his and Thewlis’ storied careers. \nAbove all\, Guest of Honour serves as a haunting reminder that our memories not only offer us the opportunity to become storytellers – they also threaten to turn us into unreliable narrators as well. (Canada/105 min) \n\n\nWe have a pair of virtual Q&As that you can attend…\n\n\n\nDavid Thewlis\, co-star Luke Wilson\, and Atom Egoyan on Sunday\, July 12 at 12:00pm PT\, hosted by Canada Now and the American Cinematheque. RSVP here. \nAtom Egoyan on Tuesday\, July 14 at 6:00pm CT\, hosted by the Gene Siskel Film Center. RSVP here. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film? Maybe you’d like to write something for our magazine.

SUMMARY:from Israel: God of the Piano
DESCRIPTION:WHY THE RYDER NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT TODAY \nBack in March\, when we made the decision to publish the magazine without ad revenue\, we thought the pandemic would be under control by September. Clearly\, we were wrong about that. Today\, with the end nowhere in sight\, we are asking for your support to publish The Ryder into the spring. Read more \n\n  \nYou can watch God of the Piano right here\, right now. We hope you enjoy the film\n \nA Greek tragedy set in contemporary Israel\, God of the Piano is the story of a concert pianist from a respected musical family who has never been able to live up to her father’s stratospheric expectations. When she becomes pregnant\, she transfers her hope of being a musical prodigy onto her child. She is devastated when her son is born deaf\, but she doubles down on her dream\, obsessively grooming him for stardom. But as the young pianist grows up\, his lack of respect for his grandfather becomes an obstacle to his career. This beautifully composed film has the pacing of a thriller. (Israel / 80 minutes) \n“CRITIC’S PICK! Tal’s style has a simultaneous simplicity and density that has an affinity with the works of Lucrecia Martel and Michael Haneke. Rarely does a debut feature showcase a talent so fully formed. This is a remarkably potent film.” – Glenn Kenny\, The New York Times \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nRent This Movie Now \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film?

SUMMARY:FLANNERY
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Flannery right here\, right now\n \n“In a small town you can lie… you can commit adultery\, you can even murder somebody\, but you can’t not go to church.” Here\, Louise Abbott evokes the social hypocrisy and harsh realism that inspired the stories of her friend\, the celebrated Southern writer Flannery O’Connor. Flannery is the lyrical\, intimate exploration of her life and work. Her distinctive Southern Gothic style influenced a generation of artists and activists. With her family home at Andalusia (the Georgia farm where she grew up and later wrote her best known work) as a backdrop\, a picture of the woman behind her sharply aware\, starkly redemptive style comes into focus. Including conversations with those who knew her and those inspired by her — Mary Karr\, Tommy Lee Jones\, Lucinda Williams\, Hilton Als and Conan O’Brien (an O’Connor scholar – who knew?) — Flannery employs never-before-seen archival footage\, newly discovered personal letters and her own published words (read by Mary Steenburgen) (96 min)\nFLANNERY is an extraordinary documentary. — Ken Burns\n \n  \nFlannery is one of two movies we are showing about mid-20th century writers. You might also want to watch Shirley. \n  \nBonus  Feature: A four-part live virtual discussion series will be available for any participating organizations: The Modern Consciousness: A ‘Flannery’ Discussion Series will feature guest moderators and panelists alongside the filmmakers for conversations ‘On Race’ (Monday\, July 20); ‘On Faith’ (Monday\, July 27); ‘On Disability’ (Monday\, August 3) and ‘On Craft’ (Monday\, August 10) in relation to O’Connor’s work and writings. More information on these virtual events\, which audiences can participate in via the film’s Facebook Live stream\, to come. \nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film?

SUMMARY:Aria
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Aria right here\, right now (but not until July 24th)\nSexy\, audacious\, thought-provoking and funny: these are all good things\, right? And that’s what we get from Aria. In 1987\, ten of the world’s most creative and celebrated directors were each given the same brief: to choose a piece of opera music and then present a visual interpretation of that music with complete artistic freedom. The result: ten short pieces directed by ten different filmmakers\, each interpreting a particular an aria (Vivaldi\, Bach\, Wagner). These are freewheeling interpretations so if you are looking for something traditional\, you might be disappointed. But if you’re OK with sexy\, audacious\, thought-provoking and funny\, well\, then\, this just might be your cup of tea. \nThe 10 filmmakers are Robert Altman\, Bruce Beresford\, Bill Bryden\, Jean Luc Godard\, Derek Jarman\, Franc Roddam\, Nicolas Roeg\, Ken Russell\, Charles Sturridge\, and Julien Temple. Going back to the original 35mm internegative\, the film has now been painstakingly restored and transferred to a widescreen HD master. Music was sourced from the massive RCA Red Seal catalog; the score features some of the world’s best opera singers. \nAria includes Bridget Fonda’s electrifying film debut\, a breathtaking performance from Elizabeth Hurley\, as well as performances by Tilda Swinton\, John Hurt\, and Theresa Russell as the trigger-happy King Zog of Albania. \n“Ten directors work magic!” – Critics Choice\, Time Magazine\n“Wonderfully demented…very funny!” – Los Angeles Magazine\n“Extravagant\, fascinating\, and outrageous!” – Philadelphia Magazine\n \nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY?\nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film?

SUMMARY:from Italy: SICILIA!
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Sicilia right here\, right now\nFilm has never seen a collaboration like that between Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet\, a fiercely intellectual husband-wife duo whose decades-spanning oeuvre aimed to spark a revolution among the masses. It contains adaptations of Kafka and Brecht\, homages to D.W. Griffith\, Renoir\, and Bresson\, and treatises on political matters both current and eternal. \n\nOne of Straub-Huillet’s most engaging and accessible works\, Sicilia! is the story of a man who returns to a village in Sicily after 15 years to visit his mother. Adapted from Elio Vittorini’s novel “Conversations in Sicily\,” the film is so exquisitely rendered that herring roasting on a hearth or a meal of bread\, wine and winter melon\, can take on the humble aura of a Caravaggio painting. The actors\, all nonprofessionals\, declaim their extended discussions with grand\, high-relief diction\, and the film’s starkly exquisite black-and-white images set the dialogue as if to visual music. (66 minutes) \n“One of their great later works.” – The Village Voice\n \n  \n“Straub-Huillet’s aesthetic abounds in anomalies. One finds comfort\, albeit austere\, in encountering patented elements of the filmmakers’ approach in Sicilia!” – James Quandt\, Artforum \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film?
